<p>For seven weeks, the Kinross resident spent her weekends doorknocking around the two suburbs to collect signatures for a petition requesting an underpass or overpass across Marmion Avenue near the roundabout at Edinburgh Avenue/Grand Ocean Entrance.</p>
<p>In September, her 2167-signature petition, of which 1820 were electors of the district, was presented to the Joondalup council, with a report presented to councillors at last week’s briefing.</p>
<p>Marmion Avenue is a four-lane carriageway, separated by a median, which carries about 47,000 vehicles per day at a speed limit of 80km/h.</p>
<p>“I started the petition when I found myself looking at wispy strands of hair floating up from a large vehicle and found some young girls inching their way across to the Kinross pavement between large, tightly packed vehicles on their way to Kinross Primary School,” she said at the briefing.</p>
<p>“Once clear of the vehicles, they ran for the pavement without looking further.</p>
<p>“Kids value their independence, yet during the week and at weekends kids in Burns Beach and Kinross are regularly driven between the suburbs by their parents, pushbike in the back of the car to be offloaded, so they can visit their friends and then be picked up again for a safe journey home.</p>
<p>“This situation is impacting on family stress levels, on carbon emissions and the junctions are congested with all the useless but necessary small trips.”</p>
<p>Ms O’Byrne said Burns Beach had no schools so many children went to Kinross Primary School and Kinross College, which involved crossing Marmion Avenue.</p>
<p>“Both schools have made it well known to local councillors they wish the uninterrupted connectivity between the two suburbs to be established,” she said.</p>
<p>Kinross Primary P&amp;C chairwoman Lisa McGrath said Burns Beach parents had told her their children were anxious about crossing Marmion Avenue on foot and had to be driven to and from school instead.</p>
<p>“All children deserve the freedom to walk freely in their community and to one of the only public schools available to them,” she said.</p>
<p>“As with most schools, parking is an ongoing problem and any reduction in cars would be welcome.”</p>
<p>She added it was not just students affected by the lack of safe crossing but also people with disabilities. </p>
<p>Ms O’Byrne said that while doorknocking, she came across a brochure from the early 1990s that indicated an underpass would be installed south of Edinburgh Avenue.</p>
<p>She urged councillors to consider installing one now.</p>
<p>Councillors will consider the report at Tuesday night’s meeting.</p>
